This document is a case study on sustainability and green engineering presented by Muhammad Naufal Adam bin Abdul Halim. It discusses how sustainability refers to meeting present needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs, while green engineering minimizes environmental impact. It notes growing awareness of sustainability issues but challenges like prioritizing short-term profits over long-term goals. Addressing sustainability requires comprehensive approaches considering full environmental impacts and collaboration on policies promoting sustainable practices.

MUHAMMAD NAUFAL ADAM BIN ABDUL HALIM 10DKM21F1043 3.0 INTRODUCTION Sustainability and green engineering have become increasingly important issues as society grapples with environmental challenges such as climate change, pollution, and resource depletion. The concept of sustainability refers to the ability of our society to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Green engineering, on the other hand, is the practice of designing, developing, and implementing technologies and processes that minimize environmental impact while still meeting the needs of society.
The current situation of sustainability and green engineering is mixed. On one hand, there has been growing awareness and interest in sustainability and environmental issues, which has led to increased efforts to promote green engineering practices. Many companies are recognizing the benefits of sustainable practices and are taking steps to reduce their environmental impact, such as reducing waste, improving energy efficiency, and using renewable resources.
However, there are still significant challenges that need to be addressed. Despite the growing awareness and interest in sustainability, many businesses and industries still prioritize short- term profits over long-term sustainability goals. There is also a lack of consistent regulations and policies that promote sustainable practices, which can make it difficult for companies to adopt these practices.
In addition to these challenges, there are also broader societal and economic factors that impact sustainability and green engineering. For example, population growth and increasing consumption patterns have put significant strain on natural resources and ecosystems. Additionally, there is a need to balance environmental concerns with economic growth and development.
To address these challenges, there is a need for a comprehensive approach to sustainability
and green engineering that considers the full environmental impact of products and processes. This may involve implementing new technologies and practices that reduce waste and pollution, using renewable resources, and designing products with a minimal environmental impact. It also requires collaboration between businesses, governments, and civil society to develop consistent policies and regulations that promote sustainability and green engineering practices.
Overall, sustainability and green engineering are critical concepts for building a more sustainable future and creating a world that is better for both people and the planet. While there has been progress in promoting sustainability and green engineering practices, there is still much work to be done to address the challenges and create a more sustainable future.
